what's the THRILL of collecting by
Ada Prill
Thrill usually is not the way I think of collecting. Mental stimulation,
enjoyment of beauty, satisfaction in figuring out something I haven't seen

Australian semipostals? by
Ada Prill
I know that New South Wales issued the world's first semipostal stamps in
1897, before joining the Australain Commonwealth in 1901. As of 2001, when
my catalogue cuts off, Australia had not issued any semipostals - does
anyone know if they have done so since 2001?
Thank you.

Scam alert - $10 coin for $5? by
Ada Prill
I recently got a renewal notice from Linns Stamp News. In the same envelope
with the renewal notice they included an ad selling $10 commemorative coins
from "The American Mint" for $5. If that sounds too good to be true...well,
that's because it IS too good to be true.
Nowhere in the text of the...

greeting card. On the back is a stamp-like charity label, red background

Albino postal stationery by
Ada Prill
I recently got a lot containing a U.S. 1c circular die stamped envelope with
an albino impression. The impression is quite faint and completely free of
ink - probably was made when one piece of paper slipped behind another so
the top piece got all of the ink and most of the embossing. I checked a...
